(19 March 1813 – 1 May 1873) was a Scottish Congregationalist pioneer medical missionary with the London Missionary Society and an explorer in Africa. His meeting with H. M. Stanley on 10 November 1871 gave rise to the popular quotation "Dr. Livingstone, I presume?" Perhaps one of the most popular national heroes of the late 19th century in Victorian Britain, Livingstone had a mythic status, which operated on a number of interconnected levels: Protestant missionary martyr, working-class "rags to riches" inspirational story, scientific investigator and explorer, imperial reformer, anti-slavery crusader, and advocate of commercial empire. His fame as an explorer helped drive forward the obsession with discovering the sources of the River Nile that formed the culmination of the classic period of European geographical discovery and colonial penetration of the African continent.

The Gap--------------------------Mystery Novel---------------------452 pages Could you murder someone and not know it? That’s the dilemma of Clint Richards, a teacher at a suburban school near Philadelphia. He was close to the crime scene at the time of the murder, and his fingerprints were on the bedroom door of the victim. But Clint has no memory of ever being in Cynthia Carter’s residence. There seems to be a time gap that he can’t account for. Richards becomes an amateur investigator trying to clear his name but only gets himself in deeper. Has he blocked out a horrible crime that he’s committed, or are there sinister forces at work framing him for the murder? Incidents from Clint’s past begin to surface telling him that he’s blocked out other parts of his life that he’s wanted to forget. Soon other murders occur with similar gaps in the suspects’ memories. It’s as if some kind of alien force has taken over people’s minds, forcing them to do heinous crimes. Richards, though, believes that there’s a human answer, and he searches for something that will link the murders to each other. Richards loses two girlfriends and nearly his mind as he pursues the answer. What he finds out about his own past sends him reeling. The answer is closer to himself than he realizes. Possibly some gaps should not be filled in. [more]
